The period between the early 20th and 21st centuries was a time of severe trials for the peoples of Russia, China, Japan, and many other countries. Some of the consequences of these hardships and adversities remain unresolved. This monograph, based on a large number of previously inaccessible and little-known documentary sources, comprehensively examines such issues as the place and role of the continental theater of military operations in the East, the global ambitions of the Japanese Empire, the interests of the USSR's allies in the anti-fascist coalition, and the development of the geopolitical and military-strategic situation in the 1930s and first half of the 1940s.
This scholarly work consistently reveals the deep origins and causes of the Soviet-Japanese War of 1945, analyzing the intentions of the Soviet command and the specifics of the USSR's preparations for war against the Japanese aggressor, as well as the plans of the Japanese Empire for military action against the Soviet Union. Additionally, the book covers the course of military operations in the land, river, and naval theaters, and provides a comparative analysis of the military art of the parties in this final campaign of World War II.
The concluding section summarizes the military actions and analyzes the international political consequences of the Soviet-Japanese War of 1945, while also addressing security issues in the Asia-Pacific region in the post-war period. Particular attention is paid to contemporary challenges and threats affecting the contours of international security.
The authors formulate criteria for the peaceful coexistence of peoples and states and propose ways to overcome military and political crises in the 21st century.
